Last Sunday the Bean family and I went to the U. S. Botanic Garden in DC for their Christmas photos. I’ve been friends with the Beans for many years and have always been blessed by their friendship. This session was special because I had the chance to play with Alex and spend a little more time with Andrew the latest addition to their family.

What an absolutely loving family. I had such a great  and relaxing time with them. While editing their photos seeing the smiles of Alex (their 3 1/2 yr old) would just make me smile – he is the cutest thing and very photogenic which always helps

Here are some of my favorites from their session. Enjoy!

Cameron was such a little star in front of the camera. What a photogenic little guy. I had the opportunity to do a photo session with Karen, Kwa and Cameron at the Brookside Gardens in Maryland. It was getting cold but Cameron was such a great sport. Here are some photos from that session.

Karen and Khoa thank you so much for letting me share this time with your family. I hope you like your photos!

I got to spend the afternoon at a winery with The Leffins a couple of weeks ago. DJ works at the winery so they thought it was only perfect that we did their family portraits at that beautiful location. I was thrilled to be able to do that. Their little girl Alaithia just turned one. She is absolutely adorable and has recently learned to walk on her own – it was a lot of fun sharing a brief moment of this precious time in her life and help document it. Here are some of my favorites from that session.

DJ+Leighera – thank you for letting me photograph your family. I had a great time!
